That is a real stunner, Red! The fit and finish look outstanding on this one. And I am sure it takes more attention to detail than a fixed blade.

The handle material is unique. It has a sort of translucent quality in the pictures. Are going to do a thumb stud?

Thanks man 😃. I will not be doing a thumb stud, as I believe a knife this sharp should be opened with two hands. It was really hard to get all the scratches out of this material, but I think the end result was worth the work! I have already had several inquiries as to whether I will be selling this one. Short answer, yes. Longer answer, I don't know how much for yet, and I still need to tweak the lock just a hair. I want it to be perfect, and while its close to perfect, its not just there yet. I have a lot of time on this, I need to figure out what my time is worth on it.

Also, Dimec here is the one who made the material for me, and I believe he can do other colors as well. My original plan was to do this folder, and a matching fixed blade to sell as a set. Sadly, I don't think the folder will make it to see its companion lol!

Upon this a question arises: whether it be better to be loved than feared or feared than loved? One should wish to be both, but, because it is difficult to unite them in one person, it is much safer to be feared than loved.
